Kelp Noodles with Spicy Peanut Sauce

Add a little heat to your dinner table tonight with gluten-less kelp noodles soaked in a delicious spicy coconut milk peanut butter sauce. For a fully raw version use jungle peanut butter or make your own in a food processor or Vitamix using un-roasted valencia peanuts. You may also choose to sub in another raw nut butter of your choice such as almond or sprouted sunflower. Enjoy!

Ingredients

Base

1 packet Sea Tangle Kelp Noodles (12 ounce packet)

Add Ons

1 cup organic spinach (diced)

1 cup organic red bell peppers (cut into small strips)

The Sauce

1 can organic full-fat coconut milk (feel free to use homemade for a fully raw version)

Instructions

Prepare the kelp noodles: remove the from the package and rinse them with purified/filtered water. Set aside.

Prepare the veggies: chop the spinach into thin strips and cut the red bell peppers into thin strips. Set aside.

Prepare the sauce: add all ingredient for the sauce to a Vitamix, or other blender, and blend until it's creamy and smooth. Adjust seasonings to your preference, especially the jalapeno and/or red pepper flakes. Also, you can add 1/4 - 1/2 cup of purified/filtered water if you want a thinner sauce.

Add the kelp noodles and veggies to a medium sized bowl, then pour the sauce over the top and gently stir until it is evenly distributed.

Notes

Tip #1: I used 1 jalapeno and added 1 teaspoon of red pepper flakes, so it is definitely pretty spicy. If you don’t want it very spicy, or not spicy at all, just reduce and/or omit the jalapeno and/or red pepper flakes.

I try very hard to make sure my family has healthy, nutrient-dense and wholesome foods to eat and that we avoid detrimental foods that can destroy and undermine our health. Since I purchase the groceries and prepare the meals for our family, I do not take this responsibility lightly – it has always been my number one priority since embracing healthier food choices over 7 years ago.
love to make everything I can from scratch and avoid processed foods as much as possible. I'm very proud to have two young boys who love kale, goji berries, hemp seeds and my green smoothies.
I am passionate about eating and buying healthy, organic, unprocessed, nutrient-dense foods and ingredients and hope I can relay some of that passion with you. On my website, The Healthy Family and Home, I share easy to make raw, vegan and gluten-free recipes using clean, wholesome ingredients. I also provide "5 Fast Facts" about the key ingredients in the recipes I post listing the nutritional benefits of each one so you can "feel good about what you eat".
No matter what diet plan you follow, I want to help you make healthier food choices, read ingredient labels and learn about what's in the foods you eat.
